To: ALL UNIVERSITY DEPARTMENTS From: Kathy Huber, Accounting Manager and Sarah Howell, Accounting Supervisor Date: May 28, 2013 Updated May 30, 2013 Re: Fiscal Year 12/13 (FY13) Year-End Closing We are quickly approaching June 30, 2013, the Universitys FY13 fiscal year close. With that in mind, we thought we would take some time to review the year-end closing procedures. All transactions for FY13 operations must be processed by specific dates throughout June and July. The attached calendar is available to assist you with these deadlines. We hope this will provide you with the information you need to plan for year-end. If there are any questions or problems concerning the year-end closing process, please contact Kathy Huber, Accounting Manager, at 494-2028 or huberk@ohsu.edu.

Important Notes: We are allowing one extra day for JE submission and two extra days for IBS entries to
allow extra year-end processing time. (Section V). All deadlines will be strictly enforced, including journal entry submissions to CFS and the Foundation.

(Section VI-B) Remember that Cognos (Variance Reporting) is updated nightly. OGA (grants) closes one day late for June, with reports available on Tuesday, Jul. 9. Final GL reports will be available Monday, Jul. 29. (Section V). I.
